Vatio CLI — deploy and manage Vatio agent workspaces
AI Security Review
scanned 6d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe manifest has no install hooks, and the inspected agent-instruction write occurs during an explicit project initialization command. Runtime telemetry is disclosed with an opt-out, while session transcripts require confirmation before sending.
Static reason
No blocking static signals were detected.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
CLI behavior runs when a command is invoked; project guidance is written by the explicit init command.
Impact
No unauthorized credential transfer or agent-control change was identified.
Mechanism
Commands use the Vatio API and npm registry for CLI functions, and init creates or updates project-local AGENTS.md guidance.
AI rationale
The manifest has no install hooks, and the inspected agent-instruction write occurs during an explicit project initialization command. Runtime telemetry is disclosed with an opt-out, while session transcripts require confirmation before sending.

Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Clean at 91.0% confidence as Benign with low false-positive risk.
Evidence for AI clean decision
- The manifest has no lifecycle scripts and exposes the CLI through bin/vatio.mjs.
- The AGENTS.md note is written by vatio init in the target project directory.
- Sharing a session requires --yes or an interactive confirmation; the transcript is sent to the configured Vatio API.
- Runtime command telemetry is disclosed and can be disabled with VATIO_TELEMETRY=0 or DO_NOT_TRACK=1.
Evidence against
- The CLI makes network requests and writes local state during normal operation.
- vatio init adds project-level guidance to AGENTS.md.
